I ran with my co-workers on Tuesday. We did a very easy 3 miles in 33:59; unfortunately, my butt/leg/hip (somewhere in that area) started hurting again. Since then, I have been foam roller-ing like crazy! All I can say about that is that it hurts so good. It's like massaging out a very painful knot. On a good note, it seems to be working. As much as I wanted to run today, I told myself I'd give my butt/leg/hip another day off. I plan on a very easy run tomorrow. Then Saturday will be my 15 mile solo run... my first time running so far on my own. But I will have something to look forward to.... a blogger meet up! I cannot wait!
Speaking of meet ups, I had two surprise meet ups this week. My youngest sister was in town for a couple days visiting some of her friends. We met up for dinner before she left. We went to Brio, and I had a delicious chicken and sweet potato risotto. Who knew I loved risotto! My super awesome sister even gave me a super awesome gift... a personalized mug. I love it! I took it to work today. Today we also had a brief meet up with Chris's mom who was in town to bring something to his sister. It was really great to see family this week that I do not usually see on a daily basis.
This week I also tested out my new super awesome tea kettle! The temperature really does change the flavor of the tea.
Finally, my mom sent me home with a package of Dove Dark Chocolate. Dove chocolate usually has little messages written on the inside of the foil. I had two pieces as dessert and discovered a message that I thought was great.

I hope you all have had an awesome week so far. Did you have any nice surprises this week?
